Sunset Over The Mekong

November 20, 2017 in Laos ⋅ 🌫 29 °C

After landing, I took a taxi to my accommodation, FAA Apartment. This accommodation was a great choice. For $34/night (a little dearer than my usual budget, admittedly), I got a whole studio apartment with balcony and kitchenette. I haven’t had this much space in a while. What was even better was that FAA Apartment was near the historic center.

When I got to FAA Apartments, my first priority was to find some food. The front desk lady told me there was a noodle shop next door. I had a very satisfying plate of fried noodles there. Sated, I wandered around the historic district to get my bearings, and then I went to the riverfront to watch the sunset over the Mekong. On the other bank was Thailand.
